    Dungeons & Dragons

    I dropped every one of those figures into hot water and let them soften up a bit first, then very carefully exercised every joint because the reports of breakage due to frozen joints was alarming. Even after doing this they're still really tight, but I feel better about carefully moving things.

    Buzzworthy Bumblebee - the "everything goes" toyline

    The Siege jets, and even the Bumblebee Movie designs are far more "inspired by" than actual representations like this Jazz and Bee were. I love it. Gimmee Wheeljack next.

    G.I. Joe thread - Yo Jo June 2026: Hooded Cobra Commander and others

    I don't know if it was quite that rosy. They threw everything at the wall in 93-94 and sales had fallen off the cliff. It may have been cheesy, but they knew they needed to do something different.

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    You forgot a handful of slow motion, 360 pans of the female character's T and A in the middle of the action.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Nice to see a single-pack Dirge for folks that missed the 2 pack. I do wish they'd announce 'Bee movie Skywarp so I knew I could complete that trio.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    It's interesting. My only experience with Metalhawk is in IDW so I wouldn't mind if this leaned more that way but I get that's not what they were going for here. I do hope part of the remold is addressing the mold-wear issues folks reported with later versions of Cyclonus. Twincast is colorful...

    Am I the only one who liked Revenge of the Fallen and the Twins?

    I hated them in the theater too. If I had to choose between them or Devastator's balls... it's a tough call which was worse. At least the balls weren't racist stereotypes.

    Am I the only one who liked Revenge of the Fallen and the Twins?

    Yeah, it was such a cool idea for a "combiner" but the characters were painfully awful.

    Haslab Skystriker arrived today. All in all, it's a nice if subtle update. As probably expected (though not specifically stated anywhere that I recall), it is the exact same size as the 25th and original versions, though the plastic feel is far more like the original versus the newer one. There...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers and have people add captions!

    I'm kind of surprised no one made an alternate set of wings - but looking at them there are a lot of pins so it's not very practical.

    Disappointing Yellowing Mystery

    It's clearly a different type of plastic used for most Star Wars toys. The original Storm Troopers and Tatooine Luke yellowed pretty badly (they also leached plasticizers so they tend to be sticky). There was one Storm Trooper with a removable helmet that came out a few years ago whose helmet...

    Apparently Gilroy talked about the real reason for GI Joe Renegades cancelation... It sounds more like they axed it for some of the same reasons they did Animated and Classics (minus the wacky Avengers connection).
